2 We Were Just Wondering Whose Side You Are On

2. 'WE WERE JUST WONDERING WHOSE SIDE YOU ARE ON?' Hiccup was as shocked to see Snotlout there as if someone had hit him suddenly in the stomach. Snotlout was Hiccup's cousin, and he had been Hiccup's enemy ever since Hiccup had been born. When they last saw Snotlout on the battlefield back in the Amber Slavelands, Snotlout was trying to decide whether to be on on their side, or the side of Alvin and the witch. So which side had he chosen? It appeared that Camicazi and Fishlegs thought they knew the answer to that question already. 'Let's get back to the hideout,' whispered Camicazi in disgust. Fishlegs sighed. 'I'm afraid I agree.' 'Hang on a second!' whispered Hiccup. 'We can't just GO HOME and leave Snotlout here!' Fishlegs looked at Hiccup with the hollow eyes of someone who has been on the run from the Dragon Rebellion for too long. 'Hiccup,' said Fishlegs, 'I don't think that Snotlout will have chosen to be on the Dragonmarker

2. “我们只是想知道你站在哪一边？”小嗝嗝看见鼻涕鼻子在那儿，吓得像突然有人打了他的肚子一样。 小鼻子是嗝嗝的表弟，从嗝嗝出生起，他就一直是嗝嗝的敌人。 当他们最后一次在安布尔奴隶地的战场上见到鼻子先生时，鼻子先生正试图决定是站在他们一边，还是站在阿尔文和女巫一边。 那么他选择了哪一边呢？ 看来Camicazi和Fishlegs认为他们已经知道了这个问题的答案。 “我们回藏身处去吧。”卡米卡齐厌恶地小声说。 Fishlegs叹了口气。“恐怕我同意。“等一下！”嗝嗝低声说。 “我们不能就这样回家，把鼻涕鼻子留在这儿！”鱼腿看着小嗝嗝，眼神空洞，就像一个逃离龙族叛乱太久的人。 “小嗝嗝，”鱼腿说，“我认为鼻鼻子不会选择在龙的标记上

side. He is a lying, two-faced, treacherous villain who has betrayed you more times than I can remember, and he is almost certainly working for the Alvinsmen.' 'People can change!' said Hiccup, his eyes lit up with enthusiasm. 'You have to believe in people and then maybe they can change!' Fishlegs kept count on his fingers. 'Let's see. He tried to kill you back in that Swordfighting at Sea lesson. He tried to kill you when we were on Hysteria that time. He threw the stone that revealed you had the Slavemark back in the School of Swordfighting… He just keeps betraying you again and again.' 'This time it's going to be different,' whispered Hiccup optimistically. 'This time I'm sure he's changed… I'm convinced of it.' 'If you try and save Snotlout,' warned the Wodensfang, looking very nervous, 'you will put us all in peril. By being kind to Snotlout, you may be endangering the lives of those who are loyal to you, who have never betrayed you. Sometimes kindness can be cruelty. These are the kind of difficult decisions that a Leader has to make.' Oh, thank you Wodensfang. Very helpful. I may have mentioned this before, but: Most of us are lucky not to be Kings and Heroes, because we do not have to make the choices that Kings and Heroes have to make.

一边。他是个谎话连篇，两面三刀，背信弃义的恶棍背叛你的次数我都记不起来了，而且他肯定是在为阿尔文家族卖命。“人是会变的！”小嗝嗝说，他的眼睛里充满了热情。 “你必须相信人们，然后也许他们会改变！”鱼腿用手指数着。 “让我们看看。他在海上剑术课上想杀了你。 我们在歇斯底里号的时候他想杀了你。 他向你扔石头，让你知道你把奴隶标记带回了剑术学院……他只是一次又一次地背叛你。“这次会不一样的，”小嗝嗝乐观地小声说。 “这次我确信他已经变了……我对此深信不疑。”“如果你试着去救鼻鼻子，”沃登斯方警告说，看起来非常紧张，“你会把我们都置于危险之中。” 如果你对鼻子好，你可能会危及那些忠于你的人的生命，他们从来没有背叛过你。 有时善良也可能是残忍的。 这些都是领导人必须做出的艰难决定。”谢谢你，沃登斯方。 很有帮助。我之前可能提到过这一点，但是：我们大多数人都很幸运，没有成为国王和英雄，因为我们不必做出国王和英雄必须做出的选择。

The ice-raft creaked as one of the Wolf-fangs tipped it. Was it Hiccup's imagination, or did the dragons submerged along the edges of the riverbanks move too, at the sound of that groaning ice? At that moment, Hiccup noticed a very small, very ugly, miniature scent-dragon sleeping innocently beside Snotlout and the Hurricane on the ice. It looked like a happy little pig. It was called a Hogfly, and Hogflys are the stupidest, most good-natured dragons in the entire world. Nine pairs of eyes, dragon and human, looked at Hiccup anxiously. Hiccup loved his friends. It was his responsibility to keep them safe. But he couldn't leave a fellow human being, even if he was on the other side, let alone a poor scarred riding-dragon and a sweet, stupid little Hogfly, to a horrible fate at the talons of the dragons of the Dragon Rebellion. 'Let's save him,' whispered Hiccup. 'Let's save him!' 'Oh brother,' moaned Fishlegs. 'I know you're right, but oh brother…' 'We'll have to try and rescue him from above,' said Hiccup. 'I'll get the Deadly Shadow flying directly above the ice-raft, and then Camicazi can let down a rope for Snotlout to climb up.'

一只狼的尖牙掀翻了冰筏，冰筏吱吱作响。 是希卡普的想象，还是淹没在河岸边的龙也在听到冰的呻吟声时动了起来？ 就在这时，嗝嗝注意到冰面上有一条非常小、非常丑的微型香龙，正天真地睡在鼻涕鼻子和飓风旁边。 它看起来像一只快乐的小猪。 它叫猪虻，猪虻是世界上最愚蠢、最善良的龙。 九双眼睛，龙的和人的，焦急地看着小嗝嗝。 小嗝嗝爱他的朋友。保护他们的安全是他的责任。 但他不能让一个人类同胞，即使他在另一边，更不要说一个可怜的伤痕累累的骑龙和一个可爱的、愚蠢的小猪蝇，在龙族叛乱的龙爪下遭受可怕的命运。 “我们去救他吧，”嗝嗝低声说。 “我们去救他吧！”“哦，兄弟，”鱼腿呻吟道。 “我知道你是对的，但是，哦，兄弟……”“我们得设法把他从上面救下来。” “我会让‘死亡之影’直接飞到冰筏上方，然后卡米卡齐就可以放下一根绳子，让鼻涕精爬上去。”

'Let me just say that I completely disagree with this decision!' whispered Camicazi fiercely. 'This is MADNESS! This is CRAZY! You've really lost the plot now, Hiccup, you Hooligan half-wit…' In one of her instant, bewildering turns of mood, she drew her sword. 'I'd better go down there,' she resolved.

“我只想说，我完全不同意这个决定！”卡米卡齐凶狠地小声说。 “这太疯狂了！”这太疯狂了！你现在真是搞不懂情节了，小嗝嗝，你这个流氓笨蛋……”她的情绪瞬间发生了令人困惑的转变，抽出了剑。 “我还是下去吧，”她打定主意。
